I bought an Accuquilt and I can't seem to get the perfectly square squares that I was promised! No matter what I do, they come out rectangular!

I am careful to send the fabric through with the stretchy part parallel to the roller part (the correct way... the lengthwise/widthwise confused me and some awesome gals on here put it in terms of "parallel" and "perpendicular" ). I send it through at a slight angle. I send 2 pieces of fabric through at a time. I use the crazy expensive quilt shop quality fabric, so I know that's not it.

And yet, no matter what I do, I end up with rectangles. Sometimes it's 1/2", sometimes it's more, which for how much I paid for the Accuquilt since it's supposed to be so perfect, I'd expect more perfection. I don't know what I'm doing wrong!! Any ideas?? Thanks in advance :)
